New Inshore Staff Rep & Area Changes

We would like to welcome Sherry Glynn into the position of Inshore Staff Representative, filling the position left vacant by Monty Way’s departure this spring.

Sherry, who is from Bay Bulls, first worked with the FFAW from 2004 to 2009 in market research and with the science program, and previous to that was an at-sea fisheries observer. She returns to the FFAW after a 13-year hiatus with provincial fisheries where she worked on seafood market development and fisheries policy.

Sherry is currently working toward a Master of Employment Relations at Memorial University, and holds a Master of Marine Studies (Fisheries Resource Management), Bachelor of Science in Marine Biology, and Diploma of Technology in Marine Environmental Technology. A strong believer in the cultural and economic power of the fishery in Newfoundland and Labrador, Sherry looks forward to meeting members throughout her area – both familiar faces and new ones.

With Sherry joining the organization we have taken the time to make some adjustments to the areas represented by staff representatives. Sherry will be representing the area of 3K while staff representative Dwan Street will now represent the entirety of 3Ps. We are working diligently to make this transition as smooth as possible.

We extend a warm welcome to Sherry and a heartfelt thank you to members in 3K from Dwan as she moves to represent the south coast. We would also like to extend sincere thanks and appreciation to Miranda McGrath and Jason Spingle who handled issues on behalf of both of areas in addition to their own these last few months.

Sherry can be reached by email at sglynn@ffaw.ca (3K)

Dwan can be reached by email at dstreet@ffaw.ca (3Ps)

Both are available through the St. John’s office at 576-7276.
